In my opinion nothing bad would happen to Bitcoin in such case - the Internet would be connected again and everything would be ok.

I am not yet at the technical level of knowledge to completely understand what would happen to the Bitcoin blockchain network if internet suddenly shuts down all over the world and then restarts the next day, week, month, etc.

My best guess is that once the blockchain is restarted we could make a fork that takes the chain from the moment the last moment the network was online before the shut down and continue onwards from there.

Any insights or opinions?
